10/26/2013 - Harvest Festival

From Drop Box
We have Finn's school Harvest Festival today. It was fun to interact with the students. Finny enjoyed giving us a tour of his School Garden. We also had his Parent Teacher Student Goal Setting conference. We received really good feedback from Ms. N about his great behavior. He is doing really well in school. It gives us both so much pride to know that he is thriving.
